Hotels in Coral Gables, FL

“The hotel is located in beautiful Coral Gables in a historic building.
Rooms are very spacious and are well equipped with everything including the coffee machine.
You can get your complementary bottle of water at Reception or use the water in the room which they charge 8 dollars for.
We had two rooms on the second floor of the hotel, but because the hotel is located on top of an office building or something it felt like we were on the sixth floor or higher thus we had a great view of Miami skyline from our balcony
Upon our arrival, we were offered vouchers for complimentary breakfast and each guest was offered a 25 dollar worth voucher to use either for room service or to get extras at breakfast. They also offer a complementary cocktail which is their signature citrus Sangria cocktail.
Speaking about the facilities - the hotel has a swimming pool and a Jacuzzi on the rooftop terrace with great views of the Miracle Mile. Both Jacuzzi and the pool are heated and open till 21:00 so we had an opportunity to relax after long days of sightseeing.
Overall I would say everything was great, but when I asked for an extra bathroom because there was only one bathroom in our room, unfortunately, they promised to provide it but never did.

Nearby activities: There is a stop of Coral Gables Trolley literally in front of the hotel so in case you did not ride this historic attraction in Miami you can catch up here. It is free for everyone

Walkability: The town of clCoral Gables has everything you need and the hotel ins located in the heart of it - overlooking the Miracle Mile - perfect for nice walks before or after dinner

Food and drinks: Great choice of cocktails and snacks at the hotel lobby bar”

“I very rarely give reviews but felt this one was worth it. The hotel was great but more importantly the people were great, and do what’s right. I plan to refer others here.”

“Overall, the hotel is beautiful and comfortable. My experience as a guest was that everyone working there was very nice, the room was great, and the drinks I had were good too. BUT be warned if you have to stay by the elevator. I was here on business at the law school, and I was kept up well into the night by screaming, literal screaming, right outside my room. I understand sorority recruitment was going on, but these were both male and female voices and I wish I had been placed further knowing I needed a good night's rest which is the number one thing I was paying for. The next night I got moved when I brought this up to the front desk. It was a nice gesture, but also a hassle and did not resolve the fact half my stay got pretty messed up. Then, even after confirming at check-in I paid all fees upon booking, I see in my credit card statement yesterday that some unexpected charge went through, so I called to ask what that was about. It turns out there was a miscommunication and that there is a destination fee charged each day. The fee is no problem, but the issue is the communication and that it came as a surprise. I would love to say I fully recommend this hotel, but for the value I got considering the horrible night's sleep the first night and then the surprise charges, I would not recommend if your goals are a restful night's sleep and a transparent bill. Maybe my experience can help you decide though based on your goals for your stay. I was reluctant to pay the steep price for the hotel each night, but it was the best option for walking to the school. It also looked nice and peaceful and like it would be worth it. In the future, I would likely opt for a different hotel where I can get a restful night's sleep unless the hotel responds to my email or reaches out to me and provides a gesture of a resolution so that I feel like everything was addressed. For now, I still give the hotel 4 stars because, like I said, it just depends on your hopes and desires for your stay.”

“Malibu Hotel, Stafford person are five star and the stay here is peaceful, comfortable, and the prices are great!!! Pedro, and Myriam, whom are in charge of the hotel are very courteous, very professional, and provide the best Customer Service. my wife, Melissa, and I love the Malibu Hotel and staff.”

“Extremely kind and helpful staff and excellent location for an affordable price. Pool is beautiful and we greatly enjoyed our stay in Miami. There’s a nice shopping mall only 5 mins walk from the hotel, and South Beach is about a 25 min drive. The only issue to be aware of is the parking garage - there is only one way up for both entering and exiting, and you need to be very careful as it really should be a one way.”

“I had a fantastic stay at Aloft Coral Gables! The modern decor and vibrant atmosphere made it a refreshing and enjoyable experience. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything I needed. The staff was friendly, accommodating, and always available to assist with any questions or recommendations about local spots. The location is perfect, within walking distance of great dining and shopping options. I also loved the rooftop pool and lounge area—it was a perfect spot to unwind. Highly recommend Aloft Coral Gables for anyone visiting the area. Looking forward to my next stay!”
